Asymptotic theory of some tests for a possible change in the regression slope occurring at an unknown time point

SummaryBased on least squares estimators and aligned rank order statistics, some testing procedures for a possible change in the regression slope occurring at an unknown time point are considered. The asymptotic theory of the proposed tests rests on certain invariance principles relating to least squares estimators and aligned rank order statistics, and these are developed here.
